'No, I've already given you all the coins, Lord Ash? '
'And we are Lord Ash's Precure, how can we turn against Ash? '
"Nani?!"
Shocker OOO, who exclaimed in surprise, held five coins in his hand regardless of his own image, and what happened before automatically flowed into the memory that made his pupils tremble even more.
"Yes, it was that time-"
He raised his hand to cover his forehead, blocking his collapsed facial expression.
Mechanically scanning everyone present, even the Pretty Cures who had no extra strength after being stripped of their strength on the cross, he seemed to be able to feel the ubiquitous compassion.
"At that time you-"
'Why, why do you want to betray-'
'Betrayal? Lord Ash Why do you say that? ' Hearing the horrified doubts of Bad End Precure, Shocker OOO's heartbeat stopped at this moment. 'Lord Ash is the only and only important thing to us. We just like you and listen to you, right? '
'That's why we have been faithfully executing your orders? '
At this moment, the man who heard the answer seemed to be unable to hear other voices.
He looked down at his feet like a clown.
He looked up again and looked at A, who was guarding Ayumi like a hero.
I'm Ash... that's right. Is he Ash? No... that's right.
Mana!? Bad End Precure?!
It's not me you admit, but him?!
The retreating footsteps made a crisp sound, and my own deep breathing lingered in my ears.
Today, my hands are shaking.
Today, my heart aches.
The expression on the man's face now, if it can still be called an expression and I have to describe it, I'm afraid there are only two words.
Heartbroken
"Quaa-that-?"
He wanted to shout something, but the man who stared in shock could not name anyone for a long time.
"The Ash that you, Mana, agree with is——hem——!"
He turned to look at Mana and A who were leaning against each other, watching the boy wipe the tears from the girl's eyes, and the girl took the boy's hand and stood up from the ground.
Listening to the exhalation of this man who kept spinning and couldn't find his direction, and watching the originally arrogant man shaking his head and letting his hands hang down, Lei and Miyuki felt a little sad in their originally angry hearts.
"Uhhhhhhhhh-!"
The mask's compound eyes, which had been re-covered at some point, were also violently shaken.
"Uhhhh! Owhhhh!"
Rider, the weirdo Rider roared with inhuman pain and too much pleasure.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
The hunched-up Rider's hands were shaking with nowhere to rest, and his back suddenly straightened, making him roar toward the sky.
"Why, why is this happening?!?!"
The girls tied to the cross could even see the distorted face "expressed" on the raised bone mask. At this moment, they were inexplicably unable to feel resentment towards him.
Mana, Bad End Precure!
"It's not your yearning - not your trust - my desire! Your desire should be relative! Aren't you going to accompany me!!!?"
The hand with no place to rest was waving Medal Slash Saber randomly, and the palms of the hands that were clenched in frustration exploded with coins flying all over the floor.
"Mana——! Pretty Cure ahhhhh——!!"
Rider, who gave up on himself, shed tears of blood from his compound eyes as he howled miserably.
"I, I, I am for you, I have done it all for you -"
Pretty Cure people were watching, and countless weirdos were watching.
The body that slumped as it collapsed began to tremble again, and it was not impossible to breathe away the next second between the exhalation and inhalation full of tears.
Why did you betray me in the end, Bad end Precure?!
And Mana...
Mana...Mana... I... I... I...
I love you so much, why do you do this to me?!
Chapter 80 Heartbroken·Crazy
"Crying かないで わたしの (Don't cry, my fragile love heart)~?"
On the other side of the rooftop, someone's shoulders were shaking violently. Ashu covered his mouth with one hand and seemed to be struggling to turn up the volume of the player he had prepared.
"はおにはにあわない (Because these painful tears are not suitable for you)~?"
"Hahahahahahahahahahaha!"
Listening to the song as the background BGM, Ashu, one of the onlookers, laughed so much that he rolled on the floor regardless of his image. He didn't care that the white shirt on his chest was stained with dust. He kept clapping with his hands and wanted to get slapped on his face.
"Wonderful, really wonderful!?"
You are such a genius, I never thought you could show me such wonderful things?!
Well, who told you to go so far and do so many bad things? It's not an exaggeration to have such a clown ending.
"Well... as Pretty Cure, am I a little too evil-minded?"
While she was deep in thought, from the corner of her eye, she saw the elves on the rooftop on the other side who were worried about their partners.
Especially when she saw something shiny that they seemed to be holding in their hands, the girl immediately acted like a bird attracted to a reflective object, her golden and pink eyes blinking as she was attracted to it.
Ah, I want to have it! If we had that, we would have exceeded our goal!!
"Forget it, after all, people like me—"
A little introspection was temporarily suppressed.
Happy end belongs to the orthodox, beautiful and kind-hearted Precure, and it probably has nothing to do with me, a non-recognized heretic Precure.
"But I always feel guilty if I do something to such a cute little animal."
Her eyes were constantly passing between the good show going on below and the elves on the other side. The sound of her slender fingers tapping on the railing finally stopped, which meant that she had made up her mind.
"If possible, I would also like those cute elves, goblins, etc..."
"Ah——! Ahhhhhh!!"
The roar, which was so miserable that it could no longer be described as miserable, was interrupted by the direct voice of another person.
"You should understand."
Feeling the gaze focused on him, Mana, who was holding A's hand, spoke seriously.
"What you like is never Aida Mana or cure haert, but just the me you inherited from Ash's memories."
The Ash I know, the Ash they know, the complete Ash will never cross his bottom line even when he doesn't know what he means!
"She has never been in this world!"
"Don't..."
Please, stop talking...
"You said you are still a child at heart, then have you forgotten it?" A next to him also looked into the eyes of the same color without fear, which would burn him with anger. "Ash's original wish was just to make friends with the heroes, so that they who could only feel longing in the illusory world can feel new happiness with his arrival!"
"Has your heart disappeared from your desires at that time?"
If so, then I——
Three coins emitting purple light poured into A's clenched palm together with another black and white Core Medal.
"Desire? Me?"
My desire... is a joke now.
Seeing that the other party was still nodding, the man talking to himself laughed like a clown in front of countless weirdos, Precure, and Ashu whose head was so damaged that he couldn't even straighten his waist.
"He-hehehehahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"
Why did God give me such pain? What did I do wrong? What did I do wrong!
"My, my desires and my sincerity have always been here, and they have never changed!"
Even through the bone mask... or rather, the mask is its face, the Pretty Cure people present can see how wide its eyes were when it made the declaration.
"Gu..."
As an enemy, he was so faceless and ridiculous at the moment, but whether it was Rikka or Reika, even Erika, who was often out of tune during battles, they all couldn't laugh, they just felt like tears were swallowing in their stomachs.
The trembling Shenghui Sword that the man raised suddenly was pointing in the direction of the blond Pretty Cure.
"Then you—Preucre!"
"Cure heart!"
"Aida Mana!"
"Mana!"
"H-drink-"
Inhaling and exhaling deeply, the man who had completely collapsed and no longer cared was panting heavily. No matter how the Bad End Precures on his belt tried to comfort him, he had no intention of stopping his frenzy at this moment.
You will definitely understand me!
If it were you, you would definitely support me! I have never changed my belief in this!
"Memories! Memories - the time spent with you is everything to me!"
After all, I am truly shaped by your thoughts, no! It is Super Ash that surpasses Ash! But——
Why is this like this - don't say anything cruel to me to save "me"!
If you want to save Ash, then what is "I"?!
"Yes, they have all disappeared..."
The collapsed long sword slowly dropped with trembling hands, and Pretty Cure could already feel that the dark "Assassin Matter" was truly awakening from this moment on.
At this moment, even Erika, who is usually the most offline, or Miyuki, who is the least flexible, understands one thing.
He is crazy...
Really crazy.
"Hahaha, since it has disappeared, it would be great to recreate it!"
The only thing that remains unchanged is his "love" for "Aida Mana".
"Start today! From the very beginning, create the time we spend together again!!"
"..." Mana faced him like this, with a sad expression on his face that almost made him burst into tears again.
"A, weak me, my shadow - my remnants!"
Staring into those eyes full of resentment and pain, A's gaze never left her for a moment.
"If you restrained her, then I will destroy you and take her back! Take back my Mana!"
"Yes, just take it back, that woman belongs to me!!"
So——
The fingertips of his right hand formed sharp spikes like drills. The suddenly violent man jumped up amidst the exclamations around him, and stabbed hard at Aida Mana——A next to him with his raised fingertips.
